You are like the wind
Gently guiding me by while barefoot on a beach
No matter how far, I’m always within its reach
Pushing me through rough seas like a sail
With you mountains are nothing to scale
Like the wind comes great change
And all begins to rearrange
You force the snow to sting my face
Foot prints in the sand you erase
You slow me down
Mountains still all around
I wait for your storm to pass
With each half full glass
But behind every storm
Lies a sunrise to keep me warm
In that light I shall lay
Because long I have waited for this day

It seems ages since we met over your long, golden hair
an hour glass on the table keeping the meter.
It seems like too many dress up doll days when we played
take me to the river but don’t get our feet wet.
It seems we lost our inner selves painting our faces
painting our nails, singing karaoke at the bars.
Oh, to regain those lost years of our youth, unwrinkled skin
turn back all the pages, like winding gold on a spindle.
Instead we have just leaves, grieves, and grandchildren
with their laser guns, plastic skin and smug attitudes.
They never challenged gamey little midgets with foul intent
they had us to pad them safely with money, love and scent.
Dear Rapunzel, do please let your hair down one more time
and play climb out of the cellar and up the apple tree with me.
Signed Your Dearest Play Mate.

A small romantic rain poem dedicated to hubby.
wrote by Mrs.Madhavi.Suyog.Pagare
"Ohhhh Rain..Shower again!!!!! "
Showering in the rain,
Draining the pain!
Enflueraging the essence of arenicolous sand,
Feeling blessed porting on this beautiful greenary land! Trees were roaming
under fiercing winds,
Thanks nature for benevolently so kind!
Sip of sizzling coffee With Caramalized sugar,
Cheers hubby to accompany me my gelling agar!
Wanna capture this Driplets of aromatic water nearby lake,
So that I can make an icy snowflake!
That's amazing, "but ohhhh God, I wish my honey is here".
Wrote by Mrs.Madhavi.Suyog.Pagare

If I picked my Valentine
she'd be a perfect 10.
She'd have blonde hair with highlites
and answer where and when.
She'd be a little shorter,
yet tall enough to kiss.
Her reach a little longer
to torture us in bliss.
Her shape would be the bomb.
As sexy as they come.
With hair up for the moment
I'd meet her at the prom.
She'd talk a little faster
with words I'd say are smart.
Yet keep me to attention
in hugs up to my heart.
A smile just like a lion.
Her face a source of pride.
One to show my mother.
And then to make my bride.
My Valentine was perfect
as I lost her way back then.
How was I to know that she
would find her perfect 10.

No valentine on Valentine's.
I haven't met one yet.
Each year I wait another
for a person I've not met.
There's nothing I've done wrong:
yet waiting is in vain.
And all that's left is hope
that love's a ball and chain.

Stop and stare as the time stands still.
The pain hurts, but the silence kills.
Twisted emotions, this feeling's so strong.
My body feels weak, but my mind feels headstrong.
I slip and fall now only to crawl.
Your eyes told the story like a crystal ball.
A soft-friendly touch, I feel of your heart.
It's thumping so loud, I'm ripping apart.
Life makes no sense,this moment so tense.
Contagious emotions are building a fence.
It tears me down that I can't tear it down.
I've got more to live for, and it's wearing a frown.
You make my world spin, and you make it all stop.
Goodbyes make it worse, I spin like a top.
Given no choice but to drive away.
The words left unsaid are too hard to convey.
The click starts to tick, tomorrow comes near.
I held you so dear that it felt like a year.
- Yours Truly

Walking down road of life and
we're talking.
Sharing our stories- laughing
and gawking.
While expressing the troubles
that made your day hard-
A climax interrupted,
The ending was scarred.
A bridge built to pass, we
thought it would last.
Like spilling a glass, our
moment was vast.
When all of the sudden- The End of our date.
A murderous halt- the car
stopped too late.
You sniffled your nose, a drunk
driver dozed...
Then BAM! - Our bodies were
lifeless in clothes.
It's noises of sirens we both left
behind,
And a drunk put in cuffs with
jail on his mind.
I loved you a lot, but held off to
say...
I wanted it perfect- the right
time of day.
Now I know there was no other
way,
But to confront this difficult,
"I love you" cliche.
Carpe diem, just live like you
mean it.
Seize the day, or die like you've
seen it.
Every breath allows you the
chance,
To rethink your life- ask her to
dance.
-Yours Truly

How I tried on Valentine's
all over the many years.
I've lost all of my Valentine's
and most of them in tears.
How I tried on Valentine's
to find my merry mate.
Working through the ugly
and possible first-rate.
How I tried on Valentine's
Forgetting all my failures.
Moving to the next one
oblivious of the bailers.
How I tried on Valentine's
to settle for much less.
Hoping that the next one
Would change and reassess.
How I tried on Valentine's
to go the other way.
Hoping that they'd chase me
finding me as clay.
How I tried on Valentine's
to say what's on my mind.
Shouting out my arrogants
and baiting the wrong kind.
How I tried on Valentine's
to make a friend at first.
Only to be shunned again
by girls who want you worst.
How I tried on Valentine's
to wait for the right time.
Left to find my girl
on another's dime.
How I tried on Valentine's
to spin a small milk bottle.
Landing on a stranger
foreign without throttle.
How I tried on Valentine's
to meet up with a bore.
When all she kept on talking 'bout
was nothing and no more.
How I tried on Valentine's
coveting one man's wife.
Only to release her
sharing in man's strife.
How I tried on Valentine's
Loving her full body.
Finding that she had no mind
and wished she had a hobby.
How I tried on Valentine's
Waiting to make love.
Ending up with others
When push came into shove.
How I tried on Valentine's
Seeking out a hottie.
Making me a sickly boy
who's doctor now called naughty.
How I tried on Valentine's
Expecting an easy date.
Getting just the opposite
but figuring it too late.
How I tried on Valentine's
Jailbait in short skirts.
Quick to kiss what doesn't last
and limits to their flirts.
How I tried on Valentine's
making the first move.
Only to find I'm ignored
for others in her grove.
How I tried on Valentine's
forcing my own way.
Told by a cold shoulder
How I could not stay.
How I tried on Valentine's
two instead of one
Only to be shot down
and told that I am done.
How I tried on Valentine's
Perfect to a tee.
Wanting only to be seen
in a bar as fee.
How I tried on Valentine's
Cautious and carefree.
Never knew what she was thinking
or who was bird or bee.
How I tried on Valentine's
remembering what I've learned.
Speaking words of wisdom
and loves that have been spurned.

Sometimes when I look up its you I see,
Some days when it’s raining you put a smile on my face,
An angel with wings you come to shield me,
Your beauty is it’s in own class,
The lady of the lake that is blue and pure,
The sunshine that calms the big storm,
It’s so unbelievable that I met you,
you are like
The mine that was never dug,
The hourly class that cannot’t be refueled,
A treasure you hold that I am yet to unveil,
A pillar you stand as one never to fall aside,
Fashion is a class I will give you eight,
If beauty was classified yours is timeless,
your beautiful hair that floats above the air,
Your presence that covers my lonely side,
Like a dove you bring peace to my heart.
Today enjoy my company and time,
On this special anniversary,
Arrive like the living,
Lucky to be by your side,
You have my heart,
As I await you tonight,
Flowering your bed with roses,
Light up the candle in your bedroom,
Pour Champaign in your attic room,
Together we are a team,
Together it is magic,
Your kiss takes away my breath,
Let me curve these sculptures with your name.

From his lofty perch, his favorite viewing place
He saw her approach before he could clearly see her face
A charming lady was she, dressed in her day gown
A straw bonnet lusciously adorned her beautiful crown
He considered her his beloved darling
She cherished their time wanting minutes to stretch forever
If he proposed marriage, would her answer be yes
A bride of a humble miller, his offering detest
Adoringly she looked upon his handsome chest
Love would win in the end, she would not longer be just his day guest

Your beautiful eyes sweet and bright I think butterflies would fight just for chance to light I was there in your eyes I have been a coward my turn to cry I have been foolish one more chance To rekindle the romance It will burn so bright The whole world will see the light Never to put a tear in your eyes Unless they are of joy the promise of the butterfly- 1997 A poem to my girlfriend in turbulent times. I was having troubles with the world and relationships. The butter fly did not keep all of his promise but there is still the light. By the grace of the Lord Jesus, that girl friend I had within two years became my wife, of fifeteen years and still counting.

If I were still single
I will see love and life from a different angle,
knowing that what makes a wise woman
is beyond trying to please every man.
I will not look out for comfort and cool cash
from men who will dump me like trash.
If I were still single,
I will not put my mind on how to mingle,
knowing that single-hood is not a status,
but a season to be faithful and focus...
I will not flush the street with skimpy skirts,
only to be a cheap prey to some freaky flirts.
If I were still single,
I will never let my heart niggle,
knowing that I am not meant to be a liability;
looking for love will not be my priority,
I will metamorphose into an assorted asset,
to be found by man who needs more than a pet.
If I were still single,
I will read the tales of love-triangle.
Knowing that love is beyond deep feelings;
even sadists and rapist have...deep feelings.
I won't open my legs to some random guy
who only want to feast on my fruits and fly...
If I were still single,
I will let manners and modesty be my jingle,
knowing that make-ups can turn to fake-ups,
my man won't see a stranger... when he wakes up.
I will not look for a man with mansions,
but a man who has mission and clear visions.
If I were still single
I will look before I leap,
and not sell my self cheap,
my body is my business
my private platter is priceless.
if you can't wait, you are not strong enough,
I am a treasure so tender and tough,
I will crave a love-life that will last long...
I will wait for a man steadfast and strong.

Water, Beach and A Moonlight Stroll
Moonlight, beach and a stroll in the cool blue water
you wading beside me, string bikini made it so much hotter!
You bending over to splash water in my smiling face
a fantastic sight, one that made this loving heart race!
Cool breeze sending it's soothing , washing embrace
moonlight water washing away footprints leaving not a trace!
Such glory, sharing that love filled time with you
realizing I love it all, everything you and I could ever do!
Stopping by that overhanging rock beaten by the sea
memories of your body and sweet face forever burned into me!
Love, overpowering love, burning us into just one
water, beach, breeze with us bare under that midnight sun!

Our first night at the resort in the Phillipines, Boracay!
So very beautiful and an idealic scene for love to blossom.
And blossum it did, a glorious memory burned into my heart
and my brain!
My wife, the enchantress that captured my heart with a smile,
a laugh and a string bikini! One I bought that day and dared her
to wear! Knowing I'd win the bet, she fooled me--she wore it won
the bet but just between us -- I wanted to see that win!!!!!

Someone to watch over me while I sleep.
Someone who will all my secrets keep.
Someone to hold me while I cry.
Someone to mourn me when I die.
Someone who'll help me conquer my fears.
Someone to help against arrows and spears.
Someone who will help me do what's right.
Someone to be my guiding light.
Someone to lead me when I don't know.
Someone to lift me when I am low.
Someone who listens when I talk.
Someone who follows whether I run or walk.
Someone who can make me smile.
Someone who is willing to just sit awhile.
Someone to teach me something new.
Someone to help me struggle through.
Someone who encourages me to be me.
Someone who sees what I can't see.
Someone to always point out the good.
Someone to say, "I always knew you could."
Someone who will love me all through life.
Someone to stay in peace or strife.
Someone who loves. Someone who cares.
Someone who will always be there.
Someone to do all these things and more.
Someone I can do all these for.

Your smile is beautiful and shines so bright
It can light up the darkest cold winter's night
Your heart is pure as gold like the sun
spending quality time with you has been so much fun
Life is a journey with it's ups and downs
but when I'm around you it's impossible to frown
You bring me up and calm my weary mind
This was something I was unsure I'd ever find
My heart is getting lighter each and everyday
You've helped me to toss my pain and burdens away
Thank you is all there is really left to say
I'm overjoyed God sent you my way!

Fingers
ghost like on my back
Turn my body liquid
As ripples on a sun drenched lake
Ruled by none
Skin
Stands prone before a closet
Wondering what to wear
Must we really rise?
I was so happy there,
To meet the day.
Thoughts
None beyond the bed
Nothing forced
Shout joy until we're hoarse
With nothing spoken nothing said
I saw it in your eyes
I heard it in your sighs

Uncertain is the future, and swiftly forth it draws;
I know not whether to fear it, or to invite as the dawn.
It seems as though a world is ending, as a new one opens up;
I’m ready to take it on however, for I have longed to feel its love.
My past has treated me well, now I see it as a pearl,
And now that it has built me strong and tall, I am ready for that girl.

God if you will it, please give me a girl;
One with an eye that shines like a pearl.
I’ll show her love and respect and prove my potential;
And if you give me her soon this will be evidential.
For so long I have attempted to understand,
This sweetest emotion that turns people to sand.
Please give me a chance to experience you’re great gift,
With which hearts shall be mended and heads it will lift.
God please I beg you, please send her to me –
Sooner more than later, I hope it to be.

How eloquent, you move your arms,
It's clear to see your natural charm.
That cause my heart to be alarmed -
And wonder can it be of harm.
Shinning like a golden dollar,
Looking like a new pressed collar.
While saying words to flatter me,
Coming from those smooth-lips, I see.
Seductive, full and luscious too,
I find it quite charming of you.
Though, I not dare to say in words,
Not sure, at all, you're of this world.
With eyes so eager to enchant,
While piercing with a slightly slant.
Able to sink a fleet of ships,
Commanded by those slim, firm hips.
With hair that look and smell so clean,
On such a body - very lean.
Oh, I must have you in my arms -
So, I may feel your natural charm.
